   Oct 2016 — Present · Chicago, IL, US

   Greg Schweizer represents a broad array of domestic and international clients in complex commercial litigation nationwide, antitrust disputes, internal investigations, and international arbitration. He also has pursued a robust pro bono practice, representing victims of hate crimes, fighting to protect voting rights, and providing legal analysis to Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s transition team. Greg has extensive experience taking depositions, working with experts to develop written reports and testimony, and counseling in-house legal teams on both pending litigation and avoiding future disputes or exposure. The firm regularly turns to Greg to draft critical motions and appellate briefs, as well as to advise clients’ executives and board members regarding legal risks and strategy. Clients benefit from Greg’s background working in politics and on Capitol Hill, which gives him instincts regarding public relations and reputational considerations that weigh on potential litigation decisions and positions. Greg also offers clients the perspective of a former judicial law clerk by providing clear-eyed assessments of both the strengths and weaknesses of legal arguments, strategic counsel regarding how certain litigation tactics may play in court, and insights on how judicial decisionmakers may look for narrow ways to resolve complex issues.
